Tools & Specialization

  • I am a traditional artist. This means that my tools are: mixed media ink, watercolors, oil.
    I occasionally use digital technique: Photoshop, as painting tools.
    - NO AI! (artificial intelligence image generation tools)
  • Specializing in Dark and Surreal , especially portraits: from the real person to your favorite original or literary/film/videogame character.
  • "Not Safe For Work" requests: Nudity, Grotesque and Macabre, Gore and Dark Humor are Welcome!
    - NOTE: offensive requests such as child pornography or otherwise, racial, sexual, disability, etc. are strictly prohibited.

Payments & Delivery

Payments

  • I work only upon advance payment.
  • Upon acceptance of the quote: payment and full balance for amounts under €100.
    Half deposit before the draft and final balance after confirmation of the draft for amounts above €100.
  • I will proceed to the preliminary draft, where you can ask for changes to the concept or request a new draft.
    - NOTE: After the third request for a complete change to the preliminary draft, an additional fee of €15 will be added for each new draft.
  • Once the preliminary draft is approved and during the final version, no requests for modifications/changes will be accepted.
  • Deadlines will always be met! The processing time on the final version is agreed upon at the time of the estimate, as it depends on the type of work and the artist's availability (commissions in what, etc.).

  • PLEASE NOTE: All payments already made will NOT be refunded, in no case, especially in case of "change of mind". This means that Payments will be considered as compensation for the artist, due to the commitment, time and study of the commission (even if not completed). Thank you for your understanding!

  • Traditional artworks: they will come delivered without frame. If you want the work framed and/or mounted on canvas, an additional price will be applied.

    printable. Other file formats available, such as JPG for web/social.

The artist reserves the right to modify and change prices for logistical reasons.

  • I will not share any of your information with any third party in any way, and I will not use it for any purpose other than the established agreement.
